Log from BIOS

I want to be able to pull in the error log from BIOS across a network. Looking at Win32_BIOS in MSDN I did not see anything defining the error log. Would love to do this in C# with WMI, but am open to suggestions. Is it possible?

Edit: Win32_BIOS does not have a property (don't know if that is the right term) that contains the BIOS error log. Is there a library, API, etc. that I can use to pull this information locally or from the network?

A: 

You will have to access the remote WMI provider on the machine (assuming you have the permissions to do so) and then you would query the Win32_BIOS class instances on that machine.

I am a domain and local admin on all machines. Apparently I worded the question wrong, looking for the error log instance in say Win32_BIOS
